Eva scrunched up her nose at his tease of a compliment. This was not who she was as person, some smitten girl who was easily flattered into blushing. She was an independent, working woman who could very well take care of herself. This was however, some kind of happy medium; she supposed she could blend the two for him.

Following his lead, Eavan felt that skip of her heartbeat as he kissed her again. There was a hint of wine, mixed with strawberry and it was incredibly intoxicating. She was woefully new to this- having honestly received her first kiss back in the kitchen not too long ago, but it felt all too natural, too easy to follow as she abandoned her empty wine glass on the blanket along with the momentarily forgotten food. She brought her free hand to run her fingers through his hair, coming to rest at the back of his neck as she pulled him closer.
